It would be nice if the columns which have been removed from the dataproviders disappear also from the forms.
No please, do not!
sometimes, in developing you made a mistake, by choosing the wrong type of field: Integer, TEXT, etc..
of you delete the field, and make the field with the same name, with another type, everything is changed back the right way!

How would that work? How about if you want to recreate them? How about if you want to delete them on one server and keep using them on a different one? What you are suggesting makes sense in environments where the Gui and database are one, in multi-tier environments like Servoy I don’t think its a good idea.
I think you both have good points not to do it my way.
Of course this works fine in FMP.
In Servoy however it has the mentioned drawbacks.
